4. “I think it [appropriate] that every
Christian know [Romans] by heart and
exercise himself therein continually,
as daily bread for the soul. No man
can read it too often or study it too
well; for the more it is studied the
easier it is; the more it is chewed the
pleasanter it is, and the more it is
searched the more precious are the
things found in it.”
William Tyndale (1494-1536)

6. John Stott (1921-2011)

is preoccupied only with
people’s ’felt needs.’”
